Christmas came early! Thanks for the chapter. The combat was handled perfectly, the reader knew it was a serious battle, but the story didn't get bogged down in a spell by spell account. Most of the players are now in the open and I'm expecting the battle at the cave will pretty much end the external conflict -- provided Bellatrix's vial is poison, not more polyjuice. It will be interesting to see who survives the battle, who Edith is, and if/how Harry and Ginny re-establish their relationship. As always, an excellent read.

Chapter 15 (Author Response)

Christmas coming early is down to Sherry as the are all written and beta'd and she is doing the posting. Even I don't know when a new chapter is going to be posted

Glad you liked the combat, group fights are difficult to write and this is one area I've followed the films; the fight happens and no one really speaks the incantation out loud.

Now, why would nice Auntie Bella be carrying poison? WHat has she ever done to warrant such a low opinion of her?
